A National Weather Service survey team concluded Monday that the tornados hit both counties, but officials said the report is preliminary. More information is expected to be released later.

On Monday, WKYT Chief Meteorologist Chris Bailey said the EF-1 tornadoes — one touched down Sunday near Breckinridge in Harrison County; the other touched down Saturday near Ruddles Mills in northern Bourbon County — were rare for Kentucky. Both tornadoes had estimated winds of 90-100 mph, and are the first December tornadoes in Central Kentucky since 1971, Bailey said.

No injuries were reported.
